Chapter 25 Life's Waterloo Li Jing also wanted to know why. Then...
Li Jing also wanted to know why.
The arrow that shouldn't have been shot, the secret cell that shouldn't have been suddenly broken into, and the lust that shouldn't have been aroused.
They had only met a few times.
It shouldn't be like this, she shouldn't be like this, and he shouldn't be like this either.
"No reason." Li Jing asked coldly. Before Mu Xingchen could answer, he continued indifferently, "I just want to kill you."
After saying that, the leaf pushed another inch into the neck, just a millimeter away, and the sharp blade could cut the throat. Mu Xingchen had no choice but to raise her neck to avoid the sharp threat on her neck. Cold sweat broke out on her forehead because of fear. At this moment, tears and sweat mixed together and slid straight down her chin. This scene was unbearable for anyone to see, but the person in front of her was so heartless.
Mu Xingchen desperately suppressed the murderous intent in his heart, "Xiao Qi, I really want to kill him. This is the first time I've been threatened in such a dishonorable way."
Xiao Qi reminded him, "This isn't the first time, Xingchen. You've been threatened like this quite often since you came to this world."
Mu Xingchen took a deep breath, "I'll settle accounts with the others myself, but I've already made a feud with him. You're threatening me, right? I must follow my original plan and use him to remove the poison, make him fall in love with me, then imprison him and dump him, leaving him in agony."
Xiao Qi applauded: "Okay, a series of procedures have been set up. I support you, but I remind you first, you have to get out of this situation first."
As the leaves approached, Mu Xingchen's face became almost transparent, and she could hardly cry.
"In that case, do you still like me?" There was no emotion in Li Jing's cold eyes. Looking at Mu Xingchen's bleeding fingers, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.
Mu Xingchen smiled, holding back her red eyes, then looked straight into his eyes and asked fragilely again, "Why?"
Li Jing frowned deeply, why?
Why was she asking him why at this moment? Wasn't she afraid? How dare she look him in the eye like that?
Even if he really wants to kill her now, will she still insist on liking him?
Suddenly, Mu Xingchen felt a pain in his lower abdomen, and his face turned even paler.
It’s over, it’s really here.
Her body swayed and she almost fell onto the murderous leaf.
Li Jing's pupils shrank, and she controlled the leaf to move further away from her.
Mu Xingchen took a breath and held onto the door frame with his hand. "I don't know what I did wrong to make Master Jing want to kill me. Even if I die, I want to die knowingly and give myself an explanation."
Thin beads of cold sweat appeared on her forehead, and she almost fell against the door frame.
She had lost too much blood recently and was in real pain at the moment. Thinking of the serious injuries she had suffered some time ago, the murderous intent in her heart surged.
Xiao Qi exclaimed in shock, "Hold on, Xingchen! Don't reveal your murderous intent at this time!"
Mu Xingchen gritted his teeth and took a deep breath in his heart. He was not sure whether to take action or not. He just kept talking too much nonsense.
Li Jing frowned, with a subtle nervousness, "You..."
"Master!" This was the scene Feng Xue saw when he rushed over. Mu Xingchen was pitifully threatened by a murderous blade. He was frightened, in pain, and sad. He was about to faint.
She ran over and said anxiously, "Master, what's wrong with you?" She didn't understand. The master was extremely nervous about Mu Qing two days ago, why did he suddenly change his composure today? She had just told Mu Qing that the master would treat her well.
"She's on her period and she's not feeling well right now. Please don't scare her."
Li Jing was stunned. Xinqi? No wonder there was such a strong scent of gardenia just now.
In an instant, the leaves in the yard fell naturally, including the one on Mu Xingchen's neck. She finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then collapsed to the ground powerlessly.
Feng Xue rushed to help her upon seeing this. Mu Xingchen dodged her in fear and said weakly, "Don't...don't come over...I, I want to go home."
She has internal injuries now, and she will be dead after a pulse diagnosis. Let's leave now.
After saying that, she stumbled out.
In the eyes of Li Jing and Feng Xue, she was heartbroken by her previous actions, so she couldn't wait to leave here.
Li Jing didn't stop her, but his hands hidden in his sleeves were shaking a little.
"Master!" Fengxue glared at him, turned around and was about to chase him.
Li Jing said coldly: "Blindfold her and send her away."
Fengxue had no choice but to stop and sigh helplessly. What had happened in just a short while?
Li Jing looked at Mu Xingchen's back, and a sudden pain flashed through his heart.
He is just that kind of person. No, that's not right. It should be said that he is just that kind of Yuegan tribe member. Not only is he a Yuegan tribe member, but he is also the coldest-blooded snake in the Yuegan tribe. Snakes don't have emotions.
So, stop liking him.
He let her go, and from then on, they had no contact with each other and would never meet again. She should forget him, start a good life again, and not make a mess of her life.
Before Mu Xingchen could walk out of the yard, Fengxue blindfolded him with a handkerchief and sent him back to the Mu Mansion.
After returning to the Mu Mansion, Mu Xingchen curled up alone in the corner of the bed, fearfully avoiding the wind and snow. The wind and snow had no choice but to leave medicine beside her pillow as they didn't dare to get close to her.
"I've saved some of these medicines for you. There are words on them. You can use them as you see fit." She hesitated, then said, "I'm sorry. But this is fine. From now on, just be the eldest daughter of the Mu family and stop worrying about my young master."
Mu Xingchen didn't say a word. She hugged herself blankly, looking both strong and fragile.
Fengxue sighed silently when he saw her like this. Since ancient times, the pain of love has been the most unforgettable. Her master was also a heartbreaker.
However, this might be better for her. Humans should live among the human race. After all, this is the right way.
"I'm leaving, take care of yourself."
The next second, Mu Xingchen was the only one left in the room.
After making sure Fengxue had left, Mu Xingchen sighed deeply. She sat up from the bed, picked up the medicine that Fengxue had placed aside and started taking it.
She kowtowed and said, "I'm so angry, Xiaoqi, this is a Waterloo in my life!!!"
Xiao Qi breathed a sigh of relief after confirming she was alright. She sternly corrected him, "It's a second Waterloo!!! But it's not your fault. I told you from the beginning that guy was a psychopath. Although he seemed like a conscientious type when we first met, risking his life to save you by shooting an arrow, the aura he exuded afterwards, whether intentionally or unintentionally, gave people a very dark feeling, like he was hiding something. His behavior today was also abnormal, and I'm not sure what he's doing."
Finally, Xiao Qi concluded: "Anyway, he has a special identity, and getting involved may make him more unlucky. It's better to just stay away from him. It's a pity to miss such a good opportunity to recover spiritual power." She was a little conflicted as she said this. No one wanted Mu Xingchen's spiritual power to recover more than her.
Mu Xingchen fell onto the bed with a thud. She closed her eyes and spoke with murderous intent, "He'd better pray that he doesn't end up in my hands one day."
Xiao Qi sighed: "Okay, forget about him for now, take a rest for a while, and then we can prepare to go to the western suburbs."
Mu Xingchen suddenly thought of something. She opened her eyes and asked in a complicated manner, "Xiao Qi, both times the Seven Star Tower was located in a place with very strong yin energy. Why?"
Xiao Qi was silent for a moment, then she replied, "Right away, I don't know."
Mu Xingchen raised an eyebrow. "Really? That's what she deserves." With a sigh, he yawned and closed his eyes to rest.
